I spent random swaths of time in this flick pondering why it’s No Sudden Move and not No Sudden Moves. No Sudden Move doesn’t sound right… nobody says that. “OK you palooka. No sudden move or the dog gets it”… … Continue reading
Till Death is a surprisingly good final act of an unfortunately overly long movie. But that final act – a good 30 minute conclusion – is so very good. I think they could have trimmed a good twenty minutes from … Continue reading
